Tiny Compass
A compass is an invaluable orientation aid, especially when you’re travelling by foot or bicycle. Some smartphones and navigation systems do not have built-in compasses, so they can determine direction only if you move fairly quickly. Old-fashioned hiking or cycling maps also still have their place, since they provide a much better overview than any display.
